Package: libapt-pkg5.0
Version: 1.8.0~rc2
Severity: important
We have a local repository here which is generated with an (ancient!)
version of mini-dinstall. This worked fine until rc2. The problem
appears to be that it uses Release and Release.gpg instead of InRelease.

W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is
not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error:
http://haruhi.metrics.net/deb buster/ Release: Signed file isn't valid, got
'NODATA' (does the network require authentication?)
W: Failed to fetch http://haruhi.metrics.net/deb/buster/Release.gpg Signed
file isn't valid, got 'NODATA' (does the network require authentication?)
W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.
I think it's the lack of an InRelease file because when I ran this (in
the repository):
$ gpg --clearsign < Release > InRelease
... then "apt-get update" is happy again.
